Volume 1 The Winter of Halma Chapter 60 A Snowy Night
Simon had been standing from a distance to observe Andu's situation, waiting for Yannickia to leave.
Luckily, he didn't have to wait long, and it happened just as he had guessed.
Why did this kid join the church?
Simon immediately inquired about Andu's ability to attend such a dinner, and after figuring out that Andu had saved Miss Yannickia and joined the church, his heart was worse than eating a dead fly.
"That's lucky!" Simon pushed his gold-rimmed glasses and said in a strange manner, "No matter how you joined the church, Miss Yanicia is not something that people like you can approach, understand?"
Andu glanced at him and said, "What's the matter with you?"
Simon didn't react for a while, Andu's attitude changed drastically, he was very uncomfortable, the previous picture and the person in front of him at this time, could no longer coincide, his face turned red and said: "You! You bastard! dare to talk to me like this!!"
Andu looked at Simon deeply and said unhurriedly: "Tonali is right, you are hopeless. ”
Pride and prejudice were ingrained in Simon's bones, and even if Andu wanted to give him a chance, he wouldn't accept it.
Simon laughed angrily and said coldly: "It seems that the lesson last time is not deep enough, even if Tonali comes back, he still can't save you!"
"Perhaps......" Andu suddenly walked towards Simon, leaned forward to his ear, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "You will regret what you are thinking now." ”
Simon was furious, "You inferior person!"
He raised his right hand suddenly, and the halo of the only card ring in his hand flowed.
But in the next second, he stopped all movements, and the whole person was stunned there, without any reaction.
"You...... You ......" Simon's mouth buzzed slightly, as if he wanted to say something.
Many guests have seen the light emitted from the Saiman card ring just now, and the fleeting light is so conspicuous and eye-catching in the dark night.
Andu clasped his hands in front of him, and the dark red light only had time to escape to Andu's hand, and then disappeared immediately.
Seeing this scene, Simon wanted to flee in horror, but his body seemed to be controlled by an invisible giant hand, and he couldn't make any movements other than his eyes, including shouting.
Simon, who was struggling frantically throughout the whole person, seemed to outsiders to be just a little nervous, and his body occasionally trembled slightly.
Andu looked at Simon and smiled, "Aren't you going to put on a gorgeous show for everyone?"
As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes were full of panic, shock, pleading, and disbelief, and Simon suddenly raised his left hand.
"Smack!"
The crisp sound rippled in the manor at night, on the noisy grass, the sound of laughter and chatter gradually disappeared, and the eyes of surprise, curiosity, and surprise became the main theme of this dinner.
Simon's did not stop his performance, and he raised his right hand again.
"Smack!"
There was another crisp sound, and the guests, who had not seen the first scene, suddenly understood how the sound just came out.
"Smack...... Smack......"
One after another, Simon waved his hands again and again, and the bright red blood stains on his face were intertwined with the tears that flowed, violent and wild.
More and more people watched, and the Baroness and Baroness of Cofidale were also attracted by the strange scene here, and hurried over.
So the baroness saw the following scene, which they will never forget for the rest of their lives.
The son of a lord of distinguished status knelt on the ground, slapped over and over again, and slapped his own bloodstained, swollen face, blood mixed with saliva dripping down the corners of his mouth, soaking a large area of the chest of the luxurious gown.
The strange scene reminded the couple of them of what they had seen at Mrs. Goethe's house that day.
"Mr. Simon!!!" cried out Mrs. Renada, holding her husband in her arms, in horror.
Andu looked at the baroness who were coming quickly, and slowly withdrew his spirituality, the dark red on his left hand appeared slightly, but it was covered by his right hand, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
"Oh my God!"
Baron Cofidale looked at the confused Simon and yelled at the servants beside him: "Why don't you come and send Mr. Simon for treatment, have your brains been eaten by dogs!?"
The scene was a little lively for a while, Andu puffed a faint smile, looked at the busy servants, and the couple who came over, and bent down to make a gentleman's salute.
Because it was a banquet occasion, he did not use the etiquette of the church, but chose a gentleman's etiquette that was more in line with the atmosphere.
As soon as the couple approached, the baron frowned and said, "Mr. Andu, what is going on?"
Madame Renada had just exerted her strength in her two hands around the baron, but she relaxed and allowed her husband to ask such an indiscriminate question.
When such an incident occurred during the banquet, the first reaction of the baron, as the host, should have been to beckon the guests to disperse quickly, so as to avoid the spread of the influence of the matter, and finally cause problems at the dinner.
But after the incident at Mrs. Goethe's house, the couple was obviously a little nervous, and the baron looked at Andu for a moment and then added: "It's Monsieur Simon, well, has something bad happened?"
"No, he is just confessing his past mistakes to the Lord, and nothing bad has happened. Andu smiled.
The couple were relieved to hear Andu's judgment, and they trusted the other's judgment of the young and heroic missionary who had slain the demon servant alone.
The baron regained his composure and elegance, and said to the guests around him with a smile: "Everyone disperse, the dinner is about to begin, let's all go to the main hall!"
The guests were gone, but in a few minutes they all dispersed, ready to go to the main hall for the dinner that was about to officially begin.
"Lawyer Ron and Mrs. Goethe are here today. Mrs. Renada watched the guests go to the main hall and think for a moment to say to Andu.
"Well, thank you!" Andu glanced at the lady gratefully.
"You saved Yanichia, and that's what I'm supposed to do. The baroness thought for a moment and said, "I heard that they moved, and the people of the church only found them yesterday, and it seems that they are related to Brant." ”
"Brant is a good boy, the disease has been away from him, and I believe he will grow up healthy. Andu laughed.
The baroness's nervous expression was completely relieved, she looked at Andu, and said with deep meaning: "Yanicia is in the main hall, busy with the banquet, Mr. Andu can go to the main hall and sit down if he is fine." ”
The smile on Andu's face stiffened for a second, and then he said, "Thank you, I'll take Elizabeth in later." ”
After the two barons thanked Andu again, they went to prepare for the dinner, and today's guests invited almost half of Halma's well-known figures, so naturally they could not be lazy.
Andu looked at Elizabeth, who was about to speak, and took the first step and said, "Shut up!!"
The girl indignantly continued to eat the dessert on the table.
Andu's eyes glanced in the direction of the main hall, and said in a calm tone: "I wonder how today's dinner is compared to the food on the Palmer?"
Elizabeth suddenly stopped her movements and silently put down the chestnut cake in her hand.
......
"What are you talking to about Yanicia for?" said the baron, looking at his wife puzzled.
"What do you know?" Lady Renada gave her husband a blank look and asked, "Do you know what Yanikcia has been up to lately?"
"What for?" said the baron, puzzled, "is there anything involved?"
"Of course!" sighed Lady Renada, "she has been inquiring about the Church!"
The baron suddenly realized, and then hesitated a little: "But that Andu is just a missionary......
Mrs. Renada shook her head and said, "I sent someone to investigate, and he is not simple. ”
The baron said, "What's the matter?"
"He was a pupil of the previous Roy Sacrifice, the son of Viscount Ulysses, and a good friend of Tonali. Lady Renada said thoughtfully, "You say that if you are just an ordinary missionary, how can you kill a demon alone?"
The baron's eyes flickered for a moment, and then he said in a deep voice, "Then let's take a look again." ”
Mrs. Renada did not notice her husband's eyes, and helped him into the main hall, where the guests were gathered and the lights were shining.
Andu took Elizabeth in the main hall, found a corner seat and sat down, quietly waiting for the dinner to begin.
His gaze fluttered casually, and he suddenly saw a familiar figure.
The aristocratic young man raised his wine glass, and across the small half of the main hall, he saluted Andu.
Andu looked at him, picked up the red wine with an expressionless face, and returned the past.
The eyes of the two met in the air for less than a second, as if they were tacitly understood, and they retracted at the same time.
"Who's that?" said Elizabeth curiously.
"A classmate. Andu smiled.
"Classmates?" Elizabeth thought for a moment and said, "Haven't you always had a bad relationship with your classmates?"
Andu took a sip of red wine and said with a smile: "Yes, the relationship is not too good." ”
What a terrible friendship...... Andu watched the red wine in the glass ripple back and forth, and his mind returned to that snowy night.
......
In the deserted streets, several aristocratic youths were beating a man.
Their faces were smiling, excited, and crazy, but there was no trace of psychological burden, as if all they were beating was a sandbag, a piece of rotten wood, and a corpse.
They have no guilt, no pity, as if this is their life, bullying and killing are all a concept for them, all the same little things.
So ten minutes later, they got their wish.
The thin young man in the snow, curled up and moaning, blood staining the white ground, stretched out his left hand helplessly, but was trampled by a long leather boot and ravaged hard.
The pain in his heart made the young man's body tremble, and Simon's playful shrill laughter floated through the air.
"Just leave him here?" said a short young man nervously.
The thin young man lying on the ground looked at them in despair, shaking his head vigorously, but no one paid attention to him.
The tall figure in the distance, who had not participated all this time, suddenly turned his head and said with a warm smile.
"Isn't it interesting to watch a man die in despair?"
